“After much contemplation and 19 years of marriage, Chris and I have decided to go our separate ways,” Compton-Rock said in a statement, People reported.

“My children remain at the center of my life, and their well-being is my top priority. It is in this spirit that I sincerely ask that their privacy and the privacy of our family be respected during this transition in our lives.”

In his comedy acts, Rock has been brutally incisive about marriage — as he is about all other issues.

But Rock’s divorce might not come as a surprise to his fans.

“Marriage is so tough, man,” he once said.

“Nelson Mandela got divorced. He got out of jail after 27 years of torture, spent six months with his wife and said, ‘I can’t take this [expletive] no more.'”
